Heteroptera: Tingidae) * Lace Bug Genera of the World, I: Introduction, Subfamily Cantacaderinae (Heteroptera: Tingidae) RICHARD C. FROESCHNER m i SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 574 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review. Press requirements for manuscript and art preparation are outlined on the inside back cover. I.

Froeschner SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS Washington, D.C. 1996 ABSTRACT Froeschner, Richard C. Lace Bug Genera of the World, I: Introduction, Subfamily Cantacaderinae (Heteroptera: Tingidae). Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology, number 574,43 pages, 39 figures, 1 table, 1996.—Included is an outline of adult taxonomic anatomy, a key to the two subfamilies .Cantacaderinae Stal and Tinginae Laporte (acceptance of separate family status for the Vianaididae excludes them from this publication), a key to the two tribes of Cantacaderinae: Cantacaderini Stal and Phatnomatini Drake and Davis, and keys to the 10 genera of the tribe Cantacaderini and 26 genera of the tribe Phatnomatini. Each genus is diagnosed, depicted in a dorsal habitus drawing of its type species, and accompanied by a list of currently included species with additions and changes published subsequent to the Drake and Ruhoff (1965) catalog. Where practical at this time, a key to the species within some of the genera is offered. Fossil forms are excluded except for three fossil species cataloged in modern genera: For two species of the Cantacaderini genus Cantacader, the new genus Paleocader is proposed with the new combinations Paleocader avitus (Drake) (type species) and P. quinquecarinatus (Germar and Berendt); the Phatnomatini species Phatnoma baltica Drake is transferred to the new combination Sinalda baltica. In the tribe Cantacaderini, the following generic changes have been made since the Drake and Ruhoff (1965a) catalog: increase from five genera to 10; present transfer of the genus Carldrakeana Froeschner from the tribe Phatnomatini; description of the new genus Paleocader for two fossil species (see paragraph above); and earlier transfers into Cantacaderini from Phatnomatini of Cyperobia Bergroth, Pseudophatnoma Blote, and Stenocader Drake and Hambleton. For genera within the Cantacaderini keys to two species of Allocader Drake, three species of Carldrakeana, two species of Ceratocader Drake, and two species of Pseudophat- noma are provided herein. In the tribe Phatnomatini generic changes since the Drake and Ruhoff catalog are as follows: herein description of two new genera, Etesinalda for type and only species, E. laticosta, new species, from the Island of Sao Tome and Exulmus for Ulmus engaeus Drake and Ruhoff, type and only species, with new combination Exulmus engaeus; two genera described elsewhere by Froeschner, Carldrakeana, Distocader; eight by Pericart, Daillea, Indocader, Microcader, Phatnomella, Pseudacalypta, Pullocader, Taphnoma, Thaicader; one by Stusak, Phatnocader; three genera transferred to Cantacaderini (see above); redefinition of Gonycentrum Bergroth, with Sinalda Distant elevated from synonymy; Minitingis Barber elevated from synonymy; and Phatnoma baltica Drake herein transferred to genus Sinalda. Within the tribe Phatnomatini keys to two species of Eocader Drake and Hambleton, two species of Gonycentrum Bergroth, two species of Indocader, three species of Microcader, two species of Minitingis Barber, four species of Plesionoma Drake, four species of Taphnoma, three species of Ulmus Distant, two species of Zetekella Drake are provided herein.

Drake and Florence A. Ruhoff Introduction A treatise of the generic names of the family Tingidae from a global standpoint embodies problems similar to those frequently encountered in corresponding studies in other animal groups. The more im- portant criteria, including such basic desiderata as fixation of type species, synonyms, priority, and dates of technical publications implicate questions concomitant with recent trends toward the clarification and stabilization of zoological nomenclature. Zoogeography, predicated and authenticated on the generic level by the distribution of genera and species, is portrayed here by means of tables, charts, and maps of the tingifauna of the world. This visual pattern of distribution helps one to form a more vivid concept of the family and its hierarchic levels of subfamilies and genera. To a limited extent the data indicate distributional concentrations and probable centers of evolution and dispersal paths of genera. The phylogenetic relationship of genera is not discussed. The present treatise recognizes 216 genera (plus 79 synonyms, homonyms, and emendations) of the Tingidae of the world and gives 1 Research for this paper was supported In part by the National Science Foundation, grant No. 4095. 2 PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL MUSEUM vol. 112 the figure of 1,767 as the approximate number of species now recog- nized.

  • TINGIDAE of NEW GUINEA (Hemiptera)
    Pacific Insects 2 (3) : 339-380 October 10, 1960 TINGIDAE OF NEW GUINEA (Hemiptera) By Carl J. Drake SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, WASHINGTON, D. C. This is a preliminary account of the Family Tingidae in New Guinea and nearby is­ lands. The new records herein are based upon the following collections : Bernice P. Bi­ shop Museum, specimens netted by Dr. J. Linsley Gressitt and associates in the present field survey of the insects of the islands of South Pacific Ocean1; American Museum of Natural History (New York); Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie (Leiden); and Drake Collection (USNM). Specimens also have been received from J. J. H. SzenMvany, Port Moresby, and other entomologists in New Guinea and nearby islands. The records in the literature are also included. From these various sources, a sizeable representation of the tingifauna of New Guinea has been available for initial study. The records are of particular value because they contribute immensely to the poorly-known fauna of this large island lying in a zoological realm of such unusual chorological and scientific interest. The genera and their compo­ nents provide biotic data relative to Systematics, affinities, and dispersal of lace-bugs need­ ed for comparative, faunistic studies with those of the other large islands of the Eastern Hemisphere, such as Madagascar, Taiwan, Ceylon, and Luzon. To some extent, the main­ lands of Australia, India, and Africa also enter into the New Guinean faunistic picture. In comprehensive study of the morphology and higher classification of tingids, Drake and Davis (1960) : (1) Erected the Superfamily Miroidea Hahn to hold the families Tin­ gidae Laporte and Miridae Hahn; (2) Divided the family Tingidae into the subfamilies Tinginae Laporte, Cantacaderinae Stal, and Vianaidinae Kormilev; (3) Separated the Cantacaderinae into the tribes Cantacaderini and Phatnomini; and (4) Suppressed the Sub­ family Agrammatinae Douglas and Scott (= Serenthiinae Stal) as a synonym of the Sub­ family Tinginae.

  • Classification of Plants
    Classification of Plants Plants are classified in several different ways, and the further away from the garden we get, the more the name indicates a plant's relationship to other plants, and tells us about its place in the plant world rather than in the garden. Usually, only the Family, Genus and species are of concern to the gardener, but we sometimes include subspecies, variety or cultivar to identify a particular plant. Starting from the top, the highest category, plants have traditionally been classified as follows. Each group has the characteristics of the level above it, but has some distinguishing features. The further down the scale you go, the more minor the differences become, until you end up with a classification which applies to only one plant. Written convention indicated with underlined text KINGDOM Plant or animal DIVISION (PHYLLUM) CLASS Angiospermae (Angiosperms) Plants which produce flowers Gymnospermae (Gymnosperms) Plants which don't produce flowers SUBCLASS Dicotyledonae (Dicotyledons, Dicots) Plants with two seed leaves Monocotyledonae (Monocotyledons, Monocots) ‐ Plants with one seed leaf SUPERORDER A group of related Plant Families, classified in the order in which they are thought to have developed their differences from a common ancestor. There are six Superorders in the Dicotyledonae (Magnoliidae, Hamamelidae, Caryophyllidae, Dilleniidae, Rosidae, Asteridae), and four Superorders in the Monocotyledonae (Alismatidae, Commelinidae, Arecidae, Liliidae). The names of the Superorders end in ‐idae ORDER ‐ Each Superorder is further divided into several Orders. The names of the Orders end in ‐ales FAMILY ‐ Each Order is divided into Families. These are plants with many botanical features in common, and is the highest classification normally used.

  • Insect Classification Standards 2020
    RECOMMENDED INSECT CLASSIFICATION FOR UGA ENTOMOLOGY CLASSES (2020) In an effort to standardize the hexapod classification systems being taught to our students by our faculty in multiple courses across three UGA campuses, I recommend that the Entomology Department adopts the basic system presented in the following textbook: Triplehorn, C.A. and N.F. Johnson. 2005. Borror and DeLong’s Introduction to the Study of Insects. 7th ed. Thomson Brooks/Cole, Belmont CA, 864 pp. This book was chosen for a variety of reasons. It is widely used in the U.S. as the textbook for Insect Taxonomy classes, including our class at UGA. It focuses on North American taxa. The authors were cautious, presenting changes only after they have been widely accepted by the taxonomic community. Below is an annotated summary of the T&J (2005) classification. Some of the more familiar taxa above the ordinal level are given in caps. Some of the more important and familiar suborders and families are indented and listed beneath each order. Note that this is neither an exhaustive nor representative list of suborders and families. It was provided simply to clarify which taxa are impacted by some of more important classification changes. Please consult T&J (2005) for information about taxa that are not listed below. Unfortunately, T&J (2005) is now badly outdated with respect to some significant classification changes. Therefore, in the classification standard provided below, some well corroborated and broadly accepted updates have been made to their classification scheme. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about this classification.

POPIS HETEROPTERA BOSNE I HERCEGOVINE Ljiljana Protić Prirodnjački muzej, 11000 Beograd, P.O.Box 401, Srbija i Crna Gora ABSTRACT Protić, Lj.: The list of Heteroptera of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Prilozi Fauni Bosne i Hercegovine, 1: 33-68. This list includes 705 species of Heteroptera recorded in Bosnia- Herzegovina. Last list, made by V. Apfelbek, included 526 species. This list was composed according to data from Heteroptera collection of Earth (National, op. ed.) Museum of Bosnia- Herzegovina in Sarajevo, the Study Collection of Heteroptera in Natural History Museum in Belgrade and the literature data. Keywords: check-list, Heteroptera, Bosnia and Herzegovina. UVOD Bosna i Hercegovina odlikuje se velikim diverzitetom staništa, što uslovljava veoma bogat i raznovrstan biljni i životinjski svet. Zlatno doba entomofaunističkih istraživanja, posebno Heteroptera, bilo je krajem 19. i u prvoj polovini 20. veka, kada su radili veliki Viktor Apfelbek i njegov saradnik Adolf Wineguth. Popis vrsta koji je pripremio Apfelbeck (1891) odnosi se na primerke iz zbirke Heteroptera u Zemaljskom muzeju Bosne i Hercegovine. U zbirci se nalaze i primerci koji nisu sa teritorije Bosne i Hercegovine, već iz okolnih Balkanskih zemalja., tako da njegov spisak ne daje vernu sliku zastupljenih vrsta, zatim promenjena je sistematika, i mnoge vrste su sada sinonimi. Svojim radom Apfelbeck je zaista dao veliki doprinos inventarizaciji Heteroptera Bosne i Hercegovine. Osim Apfelbeka i Winneguta bilo je još mnogih drugih istraživača kako entomologa tako i amatera, koji su doprineli današnjem saznanju o sastavu faune Heteroptera Bosne i Hercegovine (Protić, 1987, 1988, 1990, 1998, 2001, 2004).

  • Key to Genera of Tingidae in Florida
    Insect Classification Spring 2003 Amanda Bisson, Sarah Clark, Matt Lehnert, and Rick Stein Key to TINGIDAE of Florida Lace Bugs Tingidae is a rather large family in the order Heteroptera containing approximately 250 genera and 2000 species worldwide. All are phytophagous (feeding on plants) and are host specific. In fact, despite the detailed key provided here, one of the most important pieces of information necessary for tingid identification is the name of the host plant. Thirty-nine species have been reported in Florida; however, only seven of those are commonly encountered. The most common species that occur in Florida include the azalea lace bug (Stephanitis pyrioides), the hawthorn lace bug (Corythucha cydoniae), the lantana lace bug (Teleonemia scrupulosa) and the sycamore lace bug (Corythucha ciliata). Other important species include the avocado lace bug (Pseudacysta perseae), the fringetree lace bug (Leptoypha mutica), and the oak lace bug (Corythucha floridana). Physical identification of tingids is done primarily through examination of the head, pronotum and hemelytra. Adult lace bugs get their name from the lace-like appearance of their dorsum. This is created by a reticulate network of ridges on the pronotum and hemelytra that divides the area into a series of cells of variable size and shape. Many tingids also bear a strongly developed bucculae. These are ventral flanges on either side of the head that border the rostrum. Other common characteristics of tingids include two-segmented tarsi and the absence of ocelli. Their antennae are four-segmented, with segments I and II short and thick and segment III usually much longer and more slender.
